In statistical physics, it is well established that the liquid-gas (LG) phase transition with divergent critical fluctuations belongs to the Ising universality class. Whether non-equilibrium effects can alter this universal behavior remains…
We present a general scenario for high-temperature superconducting cuprates, based on the presence of dynamical charge density waves (CDWs) and to the occurrence of a CDW quantum critical point, which occurs, e.g., at doping p~0.16 in YBCO.…
This study investigates various phase transitions, including those of 2nd, 1st, and 0th order, in a holographic p-wave superfluid model incorporating 4th- and 6th-order nonlinear terms with coefficients $\lambda$ and $\tau$. We demonstrate…
Magnetic fluctuations and electrons couple in intriguing ways in the vicinity of zero temperature phase transitions - quantum critical points - in conducting materials. Quantum criticality is implicated in non-Fermi liquid behavior of…
A recent experiment [K. H. Kim, et al., Science 370, 978 (2020)] showed that it may be possible to detect a liquid-liquid phase transition (LLPT) in supercooled water by subjecting high density amorphous ice (HDA) to ultrafast heating,…
We review our study of critical phenomena in superfluid $^4$He confined in nanoporous glasses. $^4$He in nanoporous media is an ideal ground to survey the quantum phase transition of bosons. In the present work, critical phenomena were…
We examine the hydrostatic stress of electrons strongly confined in a quasi-2D quantum well in the presence of a strong perpendicular and weak in-plane magnetic field. This introduces anisotropy into the stress tensor which is inconsistent…
The dipole ordering in Sn(Pb)$_2$P$_2$S(Se)$_6$ materials may be tuned by chemical substitution realizing a ferroelectric quantum phase transition and quantum glassy or relaxor type phenomena on different parts of the phase diagram. The…
We examine the role of the anisotropy of superconducting critical thermal fluctuations in the opening of a pseudogap in a quasi-two dimensional superconductor such as a cuprate-oxide high-temperature superconductor. When the anisotropy…
We investigate the zero-temperature superfluid to insulator transitions in a diluted two-dimensional quantum rotor model with particle-hole symmetry. We map the Hamiltonian onto a classical $(2+1)$-dimensional XY model with columnar…
We discuss the dependence of the phase diagram of a hypothetical isotope of helium with nuclear mass less than 4 atomic mass units. We argue that with decreasing nucleus mass, the temperature of the superfluid phase transition (about 2.2 K…
The restricted diffusive pair contact process 2A->3A, 2A->0 (PCPD) and the classification of its critical behavior continues to be a challenging open problem of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Recently Kockelkoren and Chate [Phys.…
The anisotropic superfluid 3He-A in aerogel provides an interesting example of a system with continuous symmetry in the presence of random anisotropy disorder. Recent NMR experiments allow us to discuss two regimes of the orientational…
We consider a simple model consisting of particles with four bonding sites ("patches"), two of type A and two of type B, on the square lattice, and investigate its global phase behavior by simulations and theory. We set the interaction…
We report extensive simulation studies of phase behaviour in single component systems of particles interacting via a core-softened interparticle potential. Two recently proposed examples of such potentials are considered; one in which the…
We present what we believe is the first example of a "$\lambda$-line" phase transition in black hole thermodynamics. This is a line of (continuous) second order phase transitions which in the case of liquid $^4$He marks the onset of…
We report on thermodynamic and optical measurements of the condensation process of $^4$He in two silica aerogels of same porosity 95%, but different microstructures resulting from different pH during synthesis. For a base-catalyzed aerogel,…
Using large scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations of lattice bosonic models, we precisely investigate the effect of weak Josephson tunneling between 2D superfluid or superconducting layers. In the clean case, the Kosterlitz-Thouless…
Although there is strong theoretical and experimental evidence for electron-hole superfluidity in separated sheets of electrons and holes at low $T$, extending superfluidity to high $T$ is limited by strong 2D fluctuations and…
We examine the role of the anisotropy of superconducting thermal critical fluctuations in the opening of pseudogaps in quasi-two dimensions. When the anisotropy of coherence or correlation lengths of the fluctuations is large enough and…
